Put Together a Formula that Looks at 3 Different Cells

Hi,
I’m trying to put together a formula that looks at 3 different cells, and returns the cell that has data in it, and block from putting data in the other selection.
IF ANY INFORMATION IS COMBINED IN CELL B2,B7,B9. an error will show
If B18 = 90 PUT 100% IN CELL b1, IF B25 = 40 PUT 100% IN CELL b1, IF B33 = 20 PUT 100% IN CELL b1, 0
Please see the attachment for more detailed information, please also look at both tabs to help understand
Thank you for your time and help

Hi,
My understanding is that there are three conditions : if B18 = 90, if B25 = 40, if B33 = 20, if one of them is true, B1 will display "100%". If none of them is true, B1 will display "error". Am I right? If yes, please try this
formula and put it in B1:
=IF(OR(B18=90,B25=40,B33=20),100%,"error")
If I misunderstood something, please let me know.

Formula that looks at two different fields

Hi,
I posted this request for help not too long ago but didn't clearly explain what is needed.
When text is entered into a field (currentgoal1, currentgoal2 - each equaling 1), the formula needs to look at a different field (point1, point 2 - each holds a list box of with points 1, 3, 5, or NA) to see if "NA" was chosen. If NA was chosen (rather than a point, 1, 3, 5) then the goalcount (total number of populated currentgoal fields) needs to subtract 1 from goalcount.
currentgoal 1 = 1 point
currentgoal 2 = 1 point
currentgoal 3 = NA
3 goals, 2 points, 1 point field with NA
Since one of the current goals is has a point of NA, the overall count of currentgoals in the goalcount field (total number of populated currentgoal fields) should state 2 with the totalpoints field (all points fields added together) stating 2.
How can the formula be adjusted to subtract a currentgoal with a chosen point of NA?
Formula used now for counting current goals:
goalcount = 0
!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
(Table3.Row3.currentgoal3.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row4.currentgoal4.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row5.currentgoal5.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row6.currentgoal6.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row7.currentgoal7.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row8.currentgoal8.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row9.currentgoal9.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row10.currentgoal10.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row11.currentgoal11.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row12.currentgoal12.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row13.currentgoal13.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row14.currentgoal14.rawValue!= null){
= goalcount + 1;
if(Table3.Row15.currentgoal15.rawValue!= null){

A friend wants me to put together on booklet that's been done in excel. I'm on a mac os 10. Do I need to download microsoft excel for mac or can I open the document through indesign?

I second LibreOffice as it's the most recent fork, however NeoOffice and OpenOffice will also work.
Just say No money to Redmond!
Also the old Ready Set Go! will be having a Lion version out soon.
It's a low cost page layout program (like Indesign but without the high price) and can make booklets etc better, import the excel grpahics from LibreOffice.

I need to put an image up that looks like tv turned on

I need to put an image up of a television and have a video of something looping
in the center the image of the tv would be just that and a player
would really be under the image playing the video. I am a newbiie and would b very greatful if someone would walk me through this. I prefer to be emailed here at [email protected] rather than my email used for the forum. Replies here are greatly encouraged because i will be checking back often.

The skin (just a graphic) is something that can be created in PhotoShop or even in Flash. It needs to be able to have a hole in it for the video to show thru, so use something like a .png graphic with a transparent background. That graphic really has nothing at all to do with the palying of the video... it's just a skin, covering over the top of the video (which is on a lower layer in Flash).
So use your imagination! Go thru those tutorials listed and you'll be able to add the controls and loader bar. then when you are ready, you can incorporate an xml playlist if you like.
Here is an example of a simple video player with no skin... just controls and loading bar:
http://www.exploreolympics.com/index.html
Here is that same basic video player with a simple graphic placed over the top of the actual video. The graphic is on a higher layer in Flash, and has a hole in it so the video will show thru. This player has an xml playlist added... so the graphic has to cover over that playlist also:
http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/video.html
Here is that same simple video player, different type of skin. Open the menu and click on "Trailer" and you'll see a scrolling playlist added to that same simple little vid player.
http://www.serenityfarmthemovie.com/main18.html
Here is the code for the simple player. Of course the playlist players have added code to build and access the playlist. But start with the simple player and build on your skill from there.
/* Video player created by CI Digital Media for educational purposes */
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
video_screen.attachVideo(ns);
/* Name of your video, with correct path, goes here */
ns.play("video1.flv");
/* Comment out this pause line for use with auto start or leave pause to start with Play button */
ns.pause();
rewind_btn.onRelease = function() {
ns.seek(0);
play_btn.onRelease = function() {
ns.pause();
var videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus,100);
var amountLoaded:Number;
var duration:Number;
// Trace the metadata then remove the last comment tag from code below //
ns.onMetaData = function(myMeta) {
for (var i in myMeta) {
trace(i + ":\t" + myMeta[i])
/* cut the comment tag from line 35 and paste at end of this line so scrubber will work
ns["onMetaData"] = function(obj) {
duration = obj.duration;
function videoStatus() {
amountLoaded = ns.bytesLoaded / ns.bytesTotal;
loader.loadBar._width = amountLoaded * 160;
loader.scrub._x = ns.time / duration * 160;
var scrubInterval;
loader.scrub.onPress = function() {
clearInterval(videoInterval);
scrubInterval = setInterval(scrubit,10);
this.startDrag(false,0,this._y,160,this._y);
loader.scrub.onRelease = loader.scrub.onReleaseOutside = function() {
clearInterval(scrubInterval);
videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus,100);
this.stopDrag();
function scrubit() {
ns.seek(Math.floor((loader.scrub._x/160)*duration));
//-------Sound Controls--------//
this.createEmptyMovieClip("sound_mc",this.getNextHighestDepth());
sound_mc.attachAudio(ns);
var videoSound:Sound = new Sound(sound_mc);
mute_btn.onRelease = function() {
if (videoSound.getVolume() > 0) {
videoSound.setVolume(0);
else
videoSound.setVolume(100);
cidm_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/video.html", "_blank");
Best of luck!

How do I create a formula that automatically adds time to cells?

ie: A1 is 10:00:00, A2 is+ :30 sec, A3 is +:30 and have if fill down.
Thanks,
JJ

In Numbers, adding 12 to a date time value add one day.
As most often, there are 24*60*60 seconds in a day, adding 30 seconds requires the formula :
=original_Date_Time + 30/(24*60*60)
adding one minute requires the formula :
=original_Date_Time + 1/(24*60)
Of course you may inserted pre-calculated products :
for the ist one :
=original_Date_Time + 30/86400
or
=original_Date_Time + 3/8640
or
=original_Date_Time + 1/2880
for the second one :
=original_Date_Time + 1/1440
You may also insert the original value in A1 : 10:00:00
in A2, insert 10:00:30
Select A1:A2 drag and drop the bottom right circular handle to the bottom as it's explained in iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide and as it was already explained here many times.

Need Help Putting Together a rMBP so I Have Everything I Need...

Hello-
I am having trouble getting the right kind of help from "Chat Now" on apple.com and calling in to get my questions/needs taken care of so that when I get the rMBP I will be sure I wil have what I need to go right online and teach the online courses. I even went to the local apple store and woked with a couple sames guys there, but they were not clear in a couple situations on what I would need with the different options the rMBP gives. so I am truning to the great apple forum for additional help. this might be too much to ask even for tis forum, but if I can learn a little at a time, maybe I can gradually gain the knowledge I need to have a complete and functioning home office for my personal computing needs and my needs as an online teacher at a university back East. My technical knowledge is not the best, so as far as the rMBP goes, a big problem for me is that I do not have the knowledge to make sure I order everything I need with the changes a new rMBP will bring to my current setup (which is just a basic MBP using a wireless router and a USB cable for the printer that I just connect when I need to print). I realizee my current set up on my desk is not the most advanced, but I would need a pro to come to my office and help me get the best set-up for what I am curently using. It seems that the agents I chat with and/or talk to on the phone are aslo lacking in knowledge to help me put together a rMBP that will be ready to fully use and have with the order all that I need so that I do not have to order additional items in a mad rush to be ready for the courses I am teaching online. I have read several articles about the rMBP so that I cold have some knowledge about what I will need but as I said my techie knowledge is lacking. I am looking at the 15" rMBP with all of the full upgrades that the configure option allows one to get. I am not clear if I do run into trouble with my wi fi and have to use my ethernet cable what I will need to do this. I also have programs that are older that I am guesing I will need to install using a DVD player. I would like to hook up the printer I have or a new Canon printer and use it wirelessly, but for now I will most likely be using it with a USB cable. I am not clear on the thunderbolt technology and if I should get any of these cables for any of the connections. I also would like to get a great speaker system and will need to hook that up, but I am not clear on the best way to do this. I have been wanting an iMac, but I am not sure what is a good slection to get and how to connect it to the rMBP or one of the other 2 older MBPs I currently have.
If somebody could list for me what I would need to have a complete rMBP that will allow me to do these hookups and connections and explain what would be the best way to complete the various connections so that I have all that I will need to get up and running, I would really appreciate it. Because I do not have any USB 3.0 cables or cables for various additional connections, I would need help/suggestions in this area. I realize this is hard to do not seeing my office, but since I will be starting new with the purchase of the new rMBP and hopefully an iMac (and a new Canon printer and new set of great sounding speakers) getting some advice on what I should order for the various connections would be a hugh help. Part of the problem is with the rMBP and not having used one of these in the past. I know some of the differences with this machine like the lack of an internal SuperDrive and the new ports, but I do not know what cables I will need that will utilize the newer technology this machine and an imac will bring to my office.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, even if you do not give me specific answers, but an idea, for example, of what I might need to connect the speaker system (knowing the best way the new speaker system shold be connected to the rMBP and/or the iMac. I am not even clear if I do want to use the iMac with the rMBP for teaching with a larger display what I will need to connect the imac to the rMBP. is this done by an HDMI cable and if so is there a specific type or example you could mention that is on apple.com?

There are many differences with the new rMBP. There are ports that I am not sure what I would use them for. Even the ethernet cable I use now to get the internet will not work with the rMBP. I thought there would be some additional help on here. as far as configuring the rMBP there are just a few options but the differences between an older MBP and the new rMBP is great. No need to reply I will turn off email notifications. I gave as much information as I did because in the past I was told to give more information.

How to Put together all SAP Transactions that are used a single User

Dear Friends,
In our client place, each user will be given a set of transaction codes, (like Sales Order Creation, Invoice Creation etc....). Each user role differs with other user role.
Our client requirement is to put together all transaction codes on which his role is assigned, for instance transaction coeds like VA11, VA15N, VA21, VA25N, VL01N, VL06O, Print command. and customer generated report 'Z' codes should be placed together in a single transaction.
I heard about area menus but I dont know how to call that functionality within the Sales Transactions. Could any one of you help me to resolve this issue. Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Thank you,
Raghu Ram

HI,
In case of your requirement , you can create an Area Menu (SE43) based on the role and assign all the required transactions.
Later you can assign that Area Menu as the default parameter to the User ID (SU01).
Whenever the user will logon he will see that area menu instead of initial SAP screen.
Please check with the same and confirm.
Regards,
Harsh

I've put together a slide show and cannot get it on You tube. I've put the presentation together in Iphoto, then sent it to ITune and I cannot get Youtube to accept it. On the upload page, Youtube even says just drag and drop. That didn't work. Help!

To repeat my problem, I've put together a slide presentation and am trying to get it on Youtube...have compiled photos and music under IPhoto, then moved it to ITunes to dump into YouTube, but can't get anything to go thru. Have submitted two previous slideshows and don't remember ever having this probem. Am sure I'm doing something wrong. Anyone have suggestion(s) as to how to get this on to Youtube. Have been stonewalled for the last two hours. Thank You.

Sanjam....you are having the identical problem I'm having. Re the response to your dilemma, I'm gonna see if there is a way to export. If I figure something out to get on YouTube will let you know and would appreiate you doing the same.

Pls help putting together the BEST SOLUTION for PP and AE CS4

Hi guys
I was tasked to put together the best machine (machines) for video editing / rendering .. money is not an issue.
My client is a TV broadcasting network and they do lots of videos everyday .. They want to render their work as FAST as possible because sometimes they have tight deadlines and rendering and re rendering (if there are mistakes) has cost them .. so now they're serious about getting the best technology to achieve best rendering time possible, but in a bit of practical sense of course.. i mean there's no sense spending 1000USD or more for a piece of technology that offers under 10 second faster rendering only ..
What they do and want
- edit/put together/ sequence lots of videos constantly, under premiere cs3 (will upgrade to cs4 on the new machine)
- use affter effects for some effects and 3D stuffs.. but not that much.. but increasingly as time goes by and their video editors get more affter effects training..
- needs really really fast rendering!! Right now it takes them typically 1-2 hours to render stuffs, and what to cut this time by half or more..
Existing Setups on work stations:
Intel QuadCore (Q6600, i7, Q9550, Xeon x3220, and the likes)
4GB RAM DDR2 1066mhz
Highend motherboards
GeForce 9500GT , 9800GT, and GTX 260 216sp
GSKILL Falcon 64GB SSD Drive as primary
1TB Western Digital BLACK edition drives for storage
Software:
Windows XP 32 bit
Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 (80% of all their work done here)
AE CS3
etc..
Running NOD32 Antivirus
I am an somewhat of an expert in Hardware and stuff, i build custom PC's machines most of my life but i have limiited knowledge on optimizing hardware for VIDEO EDITING stuffs.. so i turn to you all.
I do understand that w/ video editing CPU is the most important, followed by RAM, and ofcourse by HDD for disc caches and stuff.. and where videocard may come to an advantage as well. and normally i'd suggest the fastest components available . i7 , extreme processors, skulltrail dual quad setups perhaps? RAID 0 SSD Drive? etc.. but I do not know w/c gives the most advantage, and w/c is a waste of money..
I also read about quadro cards offering really big performance improvements using CUDA tech etc..
again im not the expert at this type of requirment.. so i need your advises..
with unlimitted PRACTICAL budget given to me to come up w/ a solution I initially thought a rendering farm would be the solution, but upon reading around it seems there's no rendering farm solution for PP CS4.. just the adobe after effects part.. so i had to go back to the drawing board and suggest really powerful work stations instead..and perhaps have them migrate to 64bit OS for that "extra" performance.. i myself am on win7 64bit and it's looking mighty good.
1) is this the right move?
2) is it still worth it to put together rendering farm for AE renders only? or might as well concentrate funds on the machines/workstations?
Also along the PRACTICALITY LINE, would it be practical to maintain all the existing machines, and instead build a manned RENDERING MACHINE w/ PP and AE (basically desktop or Server if they are faster at rendering w/ the best specs for the purpose etc) where they can just throw the workload to some guy there for rendering? Atleast the editors can continue using the workstations while the rendering machine guy is at work? and even perhaps setup a gigabit lan network where the RENDERING MACHINES can dynamically pull the work load via the network , not needing to transfer the files to the rendering machine first ? etc
as you can see im not only looking for the best machine, but the best STRATEGY for my client.
Good suggestions would be much appreciated.
regards to all

in a nut shell no. if you do not have to "Share" then Avid is pointless Adobe is a far better answer.
Avid solutions still need a computer. The Mojo.Nitris are a joke and Avid no longer provides computers even the Symphany comes with your choice of Apple Mac Pro or HP 800. (Dual Xeon)
there are better "hardware" answers that what Avid sells for Adobe. Decklink, Aja to name a few.
if you have to share then you have no choice. this is the one area Abode does not lead.
renders have to do primarily with 2 things CPU power (Xeon will render faster than single i7)
and Drives. the faster your drive set up the faster the render. Memory does play a part and so does the video card depending on what codec and to what
it also depends on WHAT you are rendering and from what for the HDDs.
without knowing your work flow format and codec its impossible to suggest something.
in terms of rendering
Core i7
Dual Xeon (faster unless still doing DV/HDV thru firewire)
Sonnet raid array

Need help putting together two scenes in one frame

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to put together a movie project. The thing is I wanted to put together two video captures in one frame - one on the left and the other on the right. I've been reading threads here in the forums and there have been varying answers (sometimes misunderstanding the question) so I would give examples.
Here's an example: Do you know those movies where the guy and the girl sing a duet but they are in different locations and to give a cinematic effect, the movie will put their faces side by side singing the same lines?
Another example is when the good and the bad guys are about to face each other from different directions, the scene would be split such that the left side shows the good guys and the right side shows the bad guys.
Is there a way in iMovie to do this?
Thanks guys!

Formula that creates additional rows

Greetings everyone. I am fairly new to Apple numbers. I have a spreadsheet that calculates an investment return for clients year by year based on their age. I need the spreadsheet to go out to the clients age 100. There is an input page that I put in the clients age as well as additional information that it uses to calculate the investment return. It then takes the clients age and starts off the first column (client age) with that value. Each row has about 5 columns with different information being displayed. I am looking for a way for numbers to take the clients age column and automatically continue to create additional rows until it gets to the clients age 100. I would want each additional row to have the same formatting, formulas, and color scheme as the row before it. Is their a formula that would do this or do I need to create some sort of script?
Thank you,
Matt S.

You can put the last row (the totals) in a footer and it will always be there or it can be a regular row that is TRUE so it is not hidden.
If you make the table 125 years in length and automatically hide the unnecessary rows as I have outlined, you won't have to add rows, subtract rows, or tailor it in any other way for each client. It will tailor itself to the correct length based on the age you specify on the client's input page. And next year, when they are a year older, you can change their age in the client input page and the table will change accordingly.
Depending on how you handle the formulas within the spreadsheet, you can sum things up the normal way with the SUM function or you can sum them up with SUMIF where the "if" is "if the row is TRUE". In other words, if every row that is FALSE has zeros, you can use SUM; if the rows that are FALSE have nonsensical numbers, you could use SUMIF. Formulas for things like rate of return might take some finessing but they too can be done. Any charts you might have can be made to not show hidden data (it's a checkbox), so they too are not a problem.
I guess I'm from the school of "if it can be done within Numbers, then do it within Numbers" versus throwing scripts into the mix. It will be more versatile and portable if it does not require a script because a script is a separate entity, not part of the spreadsheet. Also, if you make changes to the spreadsheet, you may have to make corresponding changes to the script. That's just my opinion. It's your call. I'm sure Yvan can set you up with a terrific script.

How to put together a two camera shoot and sync sound

I have some live footage of musical performance. I have footage from two cameras and the sound off the desk that I need to sync up. Can somebody suggest the best way to do this? I had hoped I could sync the sound to both cameras, then put in which shots I chose at any given point, but I don't know if the system will do that. Any suggestions?

You want to do a multicam.
It is extremely well suited for this.
Since you don't seem to be aware of this, I recommend that you follow some good tutorials on this.
To get you started, take a look at a few videos explaining how this works; then you may want to read a bit on the manual of the software.
You may want to start with episode of 153, which explains how to put together a multicam clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKhmZbVgywk
Then follow the next episode, about cutting.

How to put comments within formulas

Has anyone played around with putting comments or labels within formulas? What I mean is to have a formula with several arguments, with some of them individually labeled with text.
If the arguments are cells, this often happens automatically if you have Use header cell names as references on, but in my situation, the source arguments only exist in the formula. And comments are nice, but they attach to the entire cell, not individual arguments.
What I'd like to do is a formula like this:
= 25 + 50
where I can tell that 25 is the number from May and 50 is the number from June.
Something like this would be ideal:
= 25["May"] + 50["June"]
but since there is not support for that in Numbers, the only way to do something like this is to fake it.
I have found three solutions:
=REPLACE("May",1,99,"25") + REPLACE("June",1,99,"50")
=IFERROR( NOT("May"), 25) + IFERROR( NOT("June"), 50)
=IF(TRUE,25,"May") + IF(TRUE,50,"June")
I prefer the last one, but none are particularly elegant. I wish I could find a single formula that takes just two arguments, the string and the value, and always outputs the value. The challenge is most formulas take cells or boolean expressions, not strings.
Can anyone else think of a more efficient way to do this?

Wayne, as I said twice previously, I am aware of using header cell names but that doesn't work since these values aren't referencing other cells. I only used May & June as an example.
Badunit, in my situation these formulas don't reference other cells or variables. I do that plenty often, but in this case these are many transient numbers that creating separate cells with headers would be too time consuming.
For example, I might be counting values for something I'm inventorying. An actual formula might look like:
= 10 + 25 + 22 + 5 + 15 + 5 + 2 + 160 + 5 + 5
That is the value for one location on one date; I have 12 locations, 100 dates with about 6 types of information to track, meaning 12 tables of 600 cells each already, 7200 cells total. I'm not going to also create 7200 separate tables with tens of thousands of cells to track each of those numbers separately; it's not that important and a big waste of time to do so.
But I do sometimes want to comment on discrepancies or unusual numbers. On the above, I might have written it as:
= 10 + 25 + 22 + 5 + 15 + 5 + 2 + IF(TRUE,160,"includes extra carryover from last week") + 5 + 5
Yes, comments are designed to do that. But they don't always make things easier: they are an extra place to enter information and look for it, and some people might miss it. The next day when someone updates the formula with changed values, they may not notice the comment, or they have to click back & forth to see what parts of the comment refer to what. If there are several commented values and they need to delete or change a certain one, it is easy at a glance to do so correctly.
I'm not saying there aren't other ways of doing this. I'm just saying in some limited circumstances inline comments could be time savers when you have a lot of data entry, and I was wondering if others had thought about solving the problem.

Formula that calculate two columns/text

Good afternoon Everyone,
I am trying to write a formula (if it exists) that will allow me to look at two different columns of data and calculate 3 pieces of information:
1. Open items per consultant
2. Closed items per consultant
3. Percentage of open items based on total of open and closed items per consultant.

Thanks in advance, Cicely

Open items:
=COUNTIFS(C:C,"Stacy",E:E,"Open")
or use a cell reference with the name "Stacy" - use this if you have a list of names you want to use and want to just copy the formula down to match the list:
=COUNTIFS(C:C,G2,E:E,"Open")
Closed items
=COUNTIFS(C:C,"Stacy",E:E,"Closed")
Percentages:
=Cell1/(Cell1 + Cell2)
where Cell1 and 2 are the cells with the formulas.
